To celebrate the last month of 2020 (and give a big kiss goodbye to the worst year of my life) I’m starting a series of short vlogs to go along with my current knits.
At the minute I’m working on a colourwork stranded top – a design containing a mixture of Fair Isle and intarsia techniques; made up of five jewel colours and a lovely heathered background colour – all part of Jamieson and Smiths 2 ply spindrift collection.
This first vlog demonstrates how I work with my strands of colour without the use of bobbins while keeping the work neat and tidy. This can be used for knitting and crochet, as well as other hand crafted textile projects such as crewel work, and helps stop the work becoming a tangled mess!!
Hope you enjoy this vignette and the rockabilly music, and keep an eye out for my next vlog of tips and techniques; gathered from over 30 years of studying, working and hobbying in textiles!
Ciao for now kittens!
